A useless, sharp-tongued little fox demon vs. a two-faced, scheming Demon King. No angst, happy ending, first-person narration, female protagonist's perspective.
Yinglan died. Not only was she betrayed by a scumbag, she was killed by one! To get her life back, she spent four lifetimes in the human world. Only when her soul returned to her body did she learn that the big shot of the demon race had been her backup all along.
"You like me? Seriously? I thought you wanted to become sworn brothers with me!"
The useless little darling Yinglan had mistaken her first love for someone else, and ended up losing her life. In Baili Wujiang's eyes, this was all the deserved consequence of abandoning someone after leading them on.
"You actually abandoned me and married another man! Why? Why did you get married twice, and neither time was it to me? I refuse to accept this! I'm so handsome, suave, and debonair! Why did you fall for a stinky Daoist priest?"
Should he save her? Of course! How could he live without a wife? The scumbag was the one to blame! His wife could never be wrong! "Honey, I'm here to save you!" To rescue his wife, His Highness the Demon Lord caused a huge commotion in the Hall of the King of Hell, and finally won the chance to share a pillow with her after a thousand years of cultivation.
Now that he had successfully saved his wife, Baili Wujiang would never let her run off again! He would follow her everywhere.
At mealtimes, he watched her; on walks, he followed her; when she bathed, he kept an eye on her...
"Baili Wujiang! Are you insane?"
"I'm afraid something will happen to you! Stop hitting me! It hurts!"
"How could I drown while taking a bath? Get out!"
I feel like the male protagonist is not doing well, but the female protagonist has always been doing well. Her character is just submissive and unworthy of the male protagonist's love.
Like it very much!!
